Does the stimulus bill include a $5.2 billion payoff for ACORN?

The Republicans poo-pooed 'organizers' during the presidential campaign but deep down they fear community organizations as evidenced by the way they are always trying to demonize ACORN. I doubt most of them (and the public who listens to this crap) even know what ACORN is and what it does. I would suggest you google it on the 'internets' and find out and even join your local ACORN Chapter to make a difference in your community.

The bill does include funds for which ACORN would be eligible to compete - against hundreds of other groups. But most is for a housing rehabilitation program ACORN says it never applied for in the past and won't in the future.
